Kid got a quad against his mother's wishes & advice. "You're going to kill you're self on that thing". In very short order, it happened. She insisted that it be buried with him. Warning to others? This is in Simpson Bay, St. Maarten.
Spooky!...:-)
quads are fun -- but tricky as anything with a short wheelbase is -- they are not toys as many parents sometimes make the mistake and allow children to drive before their motor skills have developed -- seems every year you hear of some child kill with or on a quad -- what amazes me is no license to drive is required even though they are banned from public roads one would think some type of proof for operator skills should be made
inky, indigenous people on small islands can have bazaar concepts. In all fairness I should add that those of us who migrate here tend to get a bit bazaar too. You are talking to a good example now.
By the way Ep, these are allowed on the roads here & on most islands I have been on. If under 50cc, no lic. or tag required. There was a kill rate here for awhile of these & scooters that was about 1 per week! The kids just didn't seem to catch on! I doubt that much more than 10% of the population here has a vehicle or knows how to drive. We deal with a culture that never even invented the wheel & still doesn't know how to use it maturely. The Eskimos never invented the wheel either, - but they didn't need it. Think about that.
Sizzler, I mailed you & deleted address but heard nothing. Did you get my mail?
hey ,,,
got a letter from ...Ralph
he said he asked you about the book i sent him for you and you said your not waiting on a book ....what up with that ...
I had told him a book was coming in the mail for me. When it arrived, he said a book had arrived and asked if it was for me & I told him yes. Maybe he didn't understand 1st time around. Makes no sense & don't know why he would send you a letter. Will contact him again right now.
ok its in your hands now bud...lol
Just got notice. He says, "We just figured it out". Think Bob really needs a vacation. Problem is, he will need another vacation after his vacation in St. Maarten during the Heineken Regatta!
